Anyone lose more than 50lbs in this age group (over 60) ?
nurse1sherry replied to Reddrobin's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
How is your calorie and fat intake? Drinking anything with sugar or frying foods? This all came easy bcos these were some of my traps. I was also getting so I was "grazing" that's another big no no. If I can help u in any way I'll be glad to. I'd love to have a conscience Buddy! -

nurse1sherry replied to Reddrobin's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm 61 and I'm 8mo out. I have lost over 60 # so far since my Sleeve last July. I guess it's true that we are never satisfied! I am presently trying to regroup, increase exercise, decrease carbs and increase protein and water. It's not an easy journey but very worthwhile! -
I've struggled as well. I'm 8 mo out and need to be more rigid with myself! I'm increasing my water, protein and exercise!

Sleeved and at home recuperating!
nurse1sherry replied to Dinks97420's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I did not have as much trouble with the drain in or coming out but I had them before so I was expecting it. And def nothing like child birth with my 4! I had them all natural and so my pain tolerance is pretty good. Keep sipping and get those shakes in. It sounds like you will be feeling markedly better every day from now on! God bless!

Do you have to loose weight, in order to shrink the liver?
nurse1sherry replied to PRINCESS2218's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The low carb high Protein no sugars low fat shrinks the liver bcos it gives up its stores of glycogen. You must follow what they say closely . Not fun but I'm handling it! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
